Matthew 15:22-25 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

22. And behold, a woman of Canaan, going out from those parts, cried out, saying to him: "Take pity on me, Lord, Son of David. My daughter is badly afflicted by a demon."

23. He did not say a word to her. And his disciples, drawing near, petitioned him, saying: "Dismiss her, for she is crying out after us."

24. And responding, he said, "I was not sent except to the sheep who have fallen away from the house of Israel."

25. But she approached and adored him, saying, "Lord, help me."
